Communication Authorized!!

I emailed the girls' defender today as well as the Kidsave contact at ICBF to ask again about being allowed to communicate with the girls, and the defender wrote me back immediately to say that she had authorized us to call and email! YAY!!! We were particularly concerned because tomorrow is Fer's birthday, and we were so hoping to be able to talk to her as she turns 10. And now we can!


And, for those of you who would like a glimpse of the fundacion where the girls are (San Mauricio in Bogota), here is a link to a recent video on YouTube to raise awareness of the godparent (sponsor) program there. You can see both girls at the end of the clip in the group of children.

I'm happy for you that you can call and email the girls, especially tomorrow as it is Fer's birthday. I like the picture of the four of you in Tivoli. You may have posted that picture before; however, I don't remember it. Nice picture!
